If you want to stand where roads from two eras, Ranch School and Manhattan Project, converge this is your trail!  

The trail ends at Meditation Point, a beautiful spot where one may watch cars snaking up the Main Hill road and view the Rio Grande Rift and the Sangre de Cristo Mountains in the distance.

This trail is a bit treacherous because it travels along the cliff edge. It is visible from the top of the main hill road, although most people do not notice it. (Don't look for the trail while driving!)
